You can't use the direct deposit numbers to ACH out. And there's a monthly fee of $5 after 180 days of non-activity.
Note: There is a 3% transfer fee for PP Biz Debit MC. Time to say goodbye.

Debit load limit
$200/day - reset at 12pm PST.
7/21 - Load limit back down to $100 a day. This keeps fluctuating, so just check your account and not the wiki.

It seems that Chime doesn't like you having a large balance so make sure you use the card every now and then. See this post http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/23173754-post47.html

Chime will suspend account for rapid unloading, large purchases/withdrawals are more likely to get flagged.

A friend of a user has been told that there is a lifetime limit of 6 debit cards linked to an account and 20 attempts of linking debit cards to an account (counting both successful and unsuccessful linkages). If you have reached the limit, there is no way to resolve the issue.

I applied on 7/3 as well and received it 7/25. They sent an email apologizing and giving a $10 promotional credit to Walmart. Spend $10 and get $10. Thanks for the PP Biz card tip.

Chime Card

Do you have to give your SSN for this card?

Pretty clearly they intend to make their money like Amex Sync Offers - so the merchants give them the money essentially, not you. So shutting down people moving any volume and not spending at the offered merchants is *good* for their business model and will help ensure they *don't* die, even though some of the people here may not like it.

ETA: For a debit card load, I think it has to be in the name of the account holder, doesn't it ? They don't even ask for the name on it, just the account number(s)/expiration.

Data point: successfully loaded Chime with MP at RA today (at the register). The funds showed up in the account within 10 minutes.

I got a 2nd PPMC from my PP account and used it for my wife. However, once i started loading her Chime, I couldn't load mine anymore [using my PPMC] (I get a debit card load error and that I should call them. I've been too lazy to do it).

FYI, I had a $5 off $75 promo for the mart and it worked on a PIN purchase for me.

Yes.. I can confirm that. That's how I liquidated when they shut me down.

Did 2K in GD loads; got suspended/shutdown. Only a few purchases at grocery stores, max balance ever was 1.5K. Tried spreading it out with 1.5K end of July then .5K beginning of this month. Yikes.

second PPMC is in my wife's name, but is my account. Anyway, once August rolled over, I'm fine now loading both my Chime [with my PPMC] and her Chime [with her as my AU PPMC]. I noticed I only have a $100 load limit while she has a $200 load limit. I think there is a monthly load limit since my loads started working again as soon as 8/1 rolled around.
